A Taste of Luxury Elevates the Natural Wonder of Costa Rica with Goway

If you’ve ever been to Costa Rica, then you’ll know that its natural bounty needs no adornment. When you’re standing on the coast of Manuel Antonio and gazing out over the sparkling blue ocean and a pair of scarlet macaws soar across the horizon, precious little could improve this special moment. Such is the country’s astounding beauty and natural wonder. But retiring to a luxury hotel and exploring its biodiversity on a private-guided tour does elevate the travel experience. Goway understands this appeal and has added new luxury hotels to its travel offers. As well, the company has increased its focus on private-guided experiences in order to elevate the tailor-made travel experience to Costa Rica.

New Luxury Hotel Options for High-End Travelers
Goway has expanded its retinue of high-end and unique properties across some of Costa Rica’s most popular tourist destinations. In the jungles of Arenal, Arenal Boutique Glamping offers a boutique eco-luxury experience with 8 rooms for a maximum of 18 guests. Travelers who want to enjoy luxury comforts while eliminating the boundaries between them and the natural world should take note.

In Monteverde Cloud Forest, Koora Monteverde Lodge blends into the magical environment with a variety of rooms, suites, and bungalows with incredible views. It’s a great new place for travelers to admire the iconic clouds hanging over the rich greenery of the mountain landscape.

Goway’s access to luxury accommodations won’t end there. In coastal Guanacaste, many deluxe properties are set to open in the coming year, offering high-end travelers more options when exploring the nation’s Pacific northwest with Goway. These properties include the new Waldorf Astoria Costa Rica Punta Cacique, the Nekajui Ritz Carlton Reserve, and the Six Senses Papagayo.

Private-Guided Experiences for Richer Memories
Of course, a gorgeous place to sleep at night is only a part of the overall travel experience in Costa Rica. This is why Goway focuses on private-guided travel offerings to the Central American nation. Private-guided tours of the nation’s jungles, cloud forests, and coastlines provide the kind of intimate knowledge and personal touch that transforms a good tailor-made trip into a great one.

With Goway, travelers can explore a regenerating rainforest at night in the company of a local guide, spotting rare endemic species such as caimans that hide in a nearby pond or tiny tree frogs that only appear on select plant species at night. Travelers can hike the slopes of Arenal Volcano to reach unforgettable lookouts off the usual trails or explore the jungle from above the canopy on a private-guided sky tram tour, ziplining between platforms to enjoy a unique vantage point of the iconic landscape. Private guides also have the expertise and practical knowledge that can help travelers spot sleepy two- and three-toed sloths in the dense jungle or rare birds such as resplendent quetzals and potoos.

Elevated Experiences of Biodiversity
So much of the appeal of Costa Rica is its biodiversity and Goway empowers travelers to have memorable (and safe) animal encounters when exploring the nation. Goway can take travelers to Tortuguero on the Caribbean coast to spot leatherback turtle hatchlings making their way to the sea. On the opposite coast, Goway can arrange tours to spot migrating dolphins and humpback whales in the late winter and early spring months. Lovers of jungle critters will be delighted at the sight of auburn-haired squirrel monkeys climbing the trees on a private-guided tour of Manual Antonio National Park. Birders can also rely on the expertise of Goway’s local guides to spot everything from iconic keel-billed toucans and scarlet macaws to more exotic migrating birds such as tanagers and trogons.

With so many seasonal changes and such an abundance of wildlife (estimated to be around 5% of the world’s total species), Costa Rica is undoubtedly one of the world’s premier wildlife destinations. Goway has the expertise to help travelers explore it in just the way they choose.
